Sizing Custom Cabinets for Larger OLED TVs

Standard dimensions for many things we encounter in our homes have always been around. From stair height to counter height , ergonomics are important not only for safety but for comfort and ease of use. Latel , flat screen tvs have grown. Oled screen are clear at close distances, and many are looking for a reason to have a newer bigger tv. In bringing the larger tv into the home appropriate furniture or built ins are sought out. The new tvs will need custom dimensions. The example in the photo is not far from the sofa, so putting a 78" screen on the old furniture would have put the screen center too high, making for some stiff necks. The new wall unit had to be built to accomodate, so the usual 32"-36" counter height was not going to work. Further complicating things was the addition of a sound bar. The base cabinets had to be dropped to 28" and all the other dimensions had to be very carefully modified so it all looks cohesive and in proportion. Montes Custom Cabinets got it right with a thin countertop, inset shaker doors, and scant measurments on all trim. In the end its just about right... at least to the eye and that’s what counts !
